What about Guinness World Records for making every realize worse then previous!

[mean]

you asked for a 4500 MegaByte file..
Maybe try with
general.params=2PASSBITRATE=4500 ??

I just load presets from 2.6.4. This is preset (gui) from 2.6.4 was working OK, done over 4k edits with this preset

Ok, I took an new "fast' preset and polish a bit and it works. Adding one thing dropping few, every new realize is gamble, for the software that never do properly what it should this is neo abstract way of programing.

Now seeking on most .mkv files don't work properly "error can't go to another frame".
